FAQs

Are these pants waterproof?

They are water-repellent, meaning they can handle light showers and mist, but they are not fully waterproof and will soak through in heavy rain.

What does PFC-free mean?

PFC-free refers to a water-repellent finish that does not use perfluorinated chemicals, making the production process more environmentally friendly.

Are these pants suitable for summer hiking?

Yes, the fabric is designed to be breathable and lightweight, making them suitable for three-season hiking in varying temperatures.

Can I iron these pants?

It is generally not recommended to iron synthetic technical fabrics as high heat can damage the DWR coating and the fabric structure.

Is the waistband adjustable?

The waist features a semi-elasticated design that provides comfort and a flexible fit without the need for traditional manual adjustments.

Troubleshooting

Water stops beading off the fabric

The DWR coating has worn off. Wash the pants and apply a PFC-free water-repellent spray or wash-in treatment to restore performance.

Fabric feels restrictive during movement

Ensure the semi-elasticated waist is sitting correctly on your hips and that you are wearing the correct size to allow the 'barrel' cut to function as intended.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Berghaus Volcanism Pants maintain their performance, follow these care instructions:

Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent.
DWR Maintenance: Over time, the DWR coating may lose effectiveness. You can revitalize it by using a wash-in or spray-on re-proofer specifically designed for synthetic technical fabrics.
Drying: Air dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources to preserve the integrity of the fabric fibers.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place and ensure the pants are completely dry before putting them away to prevent mildew.
